Dentures are tooth-replacement solutions when you’ve lost many teeth. They’re handcrafted and personalized to your unique tooth shade and offer you beautiful straight teeth that you can feel confident in. These nuanced imperfections make your smile unique.
Tomase Dental Care offers dental implants, which are used as supports to hold artificial teeth. Unlike their conventional counterparts, you never have to worry about slipping and sliding with implant-retained dentures.
Dr. Tomase crafts your denture plan to achieve a functional bite and gorgeous smile. He takes into account your:
With dentures, you can feel proud when smiling, laughing, eating, and drinking. They can also help improve your oral health as missing teeth may cause additional complications.
Tomase Dental Care is a proud general and cosmetic dentistry practice boasting over 30 years of experience creating dentures. With Dr. Tomase’s unique skill set, he can create the perfect dentures for your smile.
First, Dr. Tomase takes impressions of your teeth and gums to fabricate models for the denture creation process. This ensures that your dentures feel as comfortable as possible and look natural. Implant-retained dentures require oral surgery in which Dr. Tomase inserts metal posts (implants) into your jawbone. A period of healing is also required before he can place your permanent dentures.
He works with you throughout the creation process to make sure the alignment of your bite is absolutely perfect.
To keep your dentures in good shape, it’s important to take care of them properly. Some of the most important care tips Dr. Tomase may recommend include:
It’s crucial to store conventional dentures in water or a denture cleanser when you’re not wearing them because they can crack or warp. However, with implant-supported dentures, you don’t have to worry about taking additional steps.
Brush traditional and implant-retained dentures regularly to remove food particles, bacteria, and other debris from teeth and gums.
It’s also important to floss in between artificial teeth just like you would with your natural teeth. This prevents serious dental issues like gum disease from developing.
Regular checkups, with dental cleanings and exams, at Tomase Dental Care can also help you maintain optimal oral health.
